 In Memory of Dan Markingson

Tomorrow, May 8, 2013, will mark the ninth anniversary of the death of Dan Markingson in the CAFE study at the University of Minnesota. 

In his honor and in the hope that the same thing does not happen to another mother's son, please consider signing a petition to Mark Dayton, Governor of Minnesota, asking him to see that an independent investigation of this death is carried out. 

This is a matter of honor to University of Minnesota students, faculty, staff, administrators, alumni, and friends. It is also an obligation to citizens of the State of Minnesota who ultimately bear some responsibility for what goes on at their university.  

With my sincere apologies to Mary Weiss, Dan's mother, for what she has been put through by my university.
